More info is needed to answer that it should have been installed already not unless you used the unofficial FMCB 1.8c or the PS3 to PS2 MC adapter way

i think i used the offical FMCB (but i cant remember), what kind of information do you need answered to help me.

its on my PS2, when the ps2 starts its says get it Free MCBoot get it free from psx-scene website

than the

Browser
system Configurator
launch disc
reload configuration
free McBoot Configurator

comes up and i think it should also have ESR in it but its missing.


thanks for helping tho.

Got to Configurator and once booted go to configure ESR and set the appropriate path

BTW that list should also have uLaunchELF but don't

go to configure OSDSYS options configure Item and add name and path

when you add path I would go with square it will allow you to have your MC in either slot

and if you want to make mass is up to you but remember you must have USB with ESR in to work

Could you go into greater detail on this

I think Im having the same problem

I don't really have any idea what the correct paths are or whether or not I need to put some files on a usb drive and have in inserted to the ps2

Sorry but I'm still confused
When I go into OSDSYS I see that uLaunchELF is set as item 1 and ESR is item 2
Path 1 for both of them is mass colon slash BOOT slash BOOT dot ELF
Path 2 is mc question mark colon slash dot BOOT slash BOOT dot ELF
Path 3 is mc question mark colon slash B question mark DATA dash SYSTEM slash BOOT dot ELF
When I go into configure ESR path the paths are set in the same order
So uLaunchELF and ESR seem to be there but they aren't showing up on the main menu of the ps2
Forgive the lack of proper punctuation the stupid forum keeps thinking I'm posting links which it won't let new members do

[RandQalan]

Then give them a name in the menu that is all that should be missing now

--Configure Item :
Press left or right to select an item from 1 to 100

---Name: Displays in the OSD Menu {Sony Main screen}

---Path1: First location searched for by FMCB
---Path2: Second location searched for by FMCB
---Path3: Third location searched for by FMCB

make sure hacked OSD is set to on to show any of the list BTW

[Quadal]

They do have names

Does that mean I'm missing some files or something

Hacked OSDSYS is on as well
